Romina Salem Taborda was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1972, where she currently lives and works.
 

Graduated from the National School of Fine Arts “Prilidiano Pueyrredón”, in Buenos Aires, Salem Taborda has attended workshops with Diana Aisenberg and Tomás Espina. She was also awarded the Sculpture Scholarship with Nicola Constantino at the Borges Cultural Centre, also in Buenos Aires.
 

After traveling to India and Japan in search of printing techniques, she discovered that her journey into textiles was just beginning. In 2015, after exhaustive research on fabric and dyeing treatments, she launched AGAVE, a textile project that studies nature as a form of expression, relying on color, texture, and shape.

 

Her work has been showcased in multiple exhibitions in Argentina, Uruguay, México and France. Amongst them are: site-specific “Jardín Subacuático”, for the Campo Art Fest in Pueblo Garzón, Uruguay (2018); “¿Cómo suena un azul furioso sobre un plateado lunar?” at Praxis Gallery, Buenos Aires (2018); “Resistances Acoustiques” at Galerie Julio artist-run space and “Nature humaine-humaine nature”, KMS, both in Paris, France (2017); “Verano”, Praxis Gallery, Buenos Aires (2015); “New Chicks on the Block”, Galería Machete, México D.F.
